Enabling Spoiler Alert
This plugin is default enabled once installed but can be disabled/enabled from its settings, accessed from your admin/plugins page:
Features
Once enabled it adds a ‘Blur Spoiler’ option to the 
menu in the composer’s formatting bar. Simply highlight the text you’d like to blur and select ‘blur spoiler’ and it will wrap the selected text in the necessary [spoiler] tags:
Examples:
Inline:
[spoiler]This is a spoiler[/spoiler]
This is a spoiler
Multiline:
[spoiler]
I wanna be your vacuum cleaner
Breathing in your dust
I wanna be your Ford Cortina
I will never rust
If you like your coffee hot
Let me be your coffee pot
You call the shots
I wanna be yours

[/spoiler]

Clicking on the blur will reveal the hidden text, and clicking again will re-blur it.
It also works for images:
(to re-blur an image that is large enough to generate a lightbox, you can click on the adjacent white space or refresh the page)
